1. A red and white triangular sign at an intersection means:

Slow down if an emergency vehicle is approaching.

Look both ways as you cross the intersection.

Always come to a full stop at the intersection.

Slow down and be prepared to stop if necessary.

A triangular red and white yield sign means that you must decrease speed as you approach an intersection and yield the right-of-way to any vehicles or pedestrians in the intersection. You must be prepared to stop if conditions require it.

2. Blood alcohol content (BAC) depends on each of the following, except:

Your body weight.

How much you drink.

How much time passes between drinks.

How physically fit you are.

Your blood alcohol content (BAC) depends on how much alcohol you drink, how much time passes between drinks, and your weight. It is not affected by the type of alcoholic beverages you drink, your level of physical fitness, or how well you can "hold your liquor."

3. If you are parked parallel to the curb, you may get out of the car on the traffic side only:

During the daytime when other drivers can see you.

When the traffic light at the closest intersection turns red.

When you won't interfere with oncoming vehicles.

If you use your four-way flashers first.

After parallel parking, you must not open your door if it will interfere with bicyclists or other traffic. Check for traffic before exiting your vehicle.

4. You may drive around the gates at a railroad crossing:

When the train has passed.

Under no circumstances.

When the lights have stopped flashing.

When other drivers drive around the gates.

You are required to stop at all railroad crossings when signals warn of an approaching train. These signals may include flashing red lights, a lowered crossing gate, a flagger signaling, or a train’s audible signal of warning. Do not attempt to go around a lowered gate.

5. In which of the following situations is passing always forbidden?

The vehicle ahead is making a left turn.

You are on a one-way street which has two lanes.

The vehicle ahead is stopped for a pedestrian in a crosswalk.

The vehicle ahead is going to park parallel to the curb.

You must never pass a vehicle that has stopped at a crosswalk to allow a pedestrian to go across.

6. A large truck is ahead of you and is turning right onto a street with two lanes in each direction. The truck:

May complete its turn in either of the two lanes.

May have to swing wide to complete the right turn.

Must stay in the right lane at all times while turning.

When a vehicle makes a turn, the rear wheels follow a shorter path than the front wheels. The longer the vehicle, the bigger the difference between the paths of the front and rear wheels. Therefore, long trucks often have to swing wide to complete a right turn.

7. If an oncoming driver is heading toward you in your lane, you should:

Blow your horn, steer right, and accelerate.

Blow your horn, steer left, and brake.

Blow your horn, steer right, and brake.

Stay in the center of your lane, blow your horn, and brake.

If another vehicle is approaching you head-on in your lane, you should first honk your horn to attract attention. If the other driver does not move over, try to escape to the right. If you swerve left and the other driver corrects at the last instant, you will still crash. If a collision is unavoidable, brake firmly and steadily. Every mile per hour you slow down will reduce the impact.
